Glossus Humanus, Shell Museum Cavtat
About
The World of Mollusca We are honoured to present you our collection of sea shells, Glossus Humanus. We are a family of divers, travelers and great admirers of the sea. Our collection started as decoration for nursery room and now counts over 3500 different species from all oceans of the world. As our collection increased over years and as the biodiversity decreases daily we felt obliged to offer our treasure to public and spread admiration we have for marine life and its preservation. In just one year we have become a top attraction in Cavtat, a simple must see, especialy for families with kids. Our museum is funded only by our own achivements so we can't thank you enough for your support in our quest to be the best advocates of the sea.

We stumbled upon this place by chance on our way to the airport. It's a lovely little museum and the owner is very passionate and knowledgeable. Entry is €7 per person.

Just happened to stumble across this place when in the area with my partner. Was absolutely amazed, super interesting & well worth the visit. The lady who owns/works at the museum Ines has incredible knowledge on every shell and piece of art exhibited and is more than happy to share any information she can give you. Couldn't have asked for a better guide!
